Oh no. Hoped the joke was ruined because nowadays it would be too much of an honor to be associated with the inventor
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hedy_La... instead of discomfort about being a different gender than the forgotten sex goddess/secret tech wiz. I assume her patent was not well known then.

This is painful. When I joined the Well, I encountered “free speech absolutists“ for the first time and tried hard to embrace the idea that the remedy for harmful speech is healing speech. Probably not workable in a Paleolithic village — and less so with computer aided propaganda architecture!

Hoping to! Schedule still chaotic
Enjoy!

That’s a moving interview, Craig. Thanks for telling the story.

Before I watched I was thinking “Who would enjoy this? Maybe I’ll pass it along” - but when I saw it, I was all in. Such cool facts, such dorky music.

It’s awesome

“So we were sitting on the porch tripping balls and he said, What if you designed AI to fight hallucinations? And I said, They don’t know they are hallucinating. And he said, Then have them eliminate OUR hallucinations. Hilarious. But we didn’t write the business plan for nearly 24 hours.”

This gives me a rush of hope!

Wonderful. I love the distinctions like “Tone: Nietzschean aphorisms, with a hallucinatory edge”

Shit

Barf. When did he say that? How vile.

Waiting to see what Disney workers and the industry want now. And it’s not just workers. Curious about the size of the blow to California economy, too. Need to learn more.

Yes indeed! Single medium sharp jab to my small house on bedrock in SF, medium pitched thud sound. I need to hang something in my bathroom that can sway. Where have all the light chains gone? Appreciate the quick ref to Andrew’s lovely book

CONTRACT not contact

The points about his contact are interesting! Did you ever see this clip after Trump mocked Kimmel’s hosting at the oscars last year? Kimmel’s wife and producer McNearey gets off a pointed political attack. youtu.be/wOIPRfadAP8
